THE TEAM

Topgun Racing

Originally formed in 2011 from mainly serving members of the Royal Air Force, Topgun Racing started to compete in motorcycle road racing at the world famous Isle of man TT course. The team's discipline and professionalism and sheer hard work ethic shone out from the very start. Not only were the team popular with the fans, with their distinctive and immaculately turned out machines, but also in no time at all were amongst the best privateer teams in the paddock!

Team effort

The huge amount of time and effort required to build a successful road race team is given freely by every member of the team, whose enthusiasm extends to designing their own brand and livery, making the team instantly one of the most recognisable and popular teams both on the track and in the race paddock.

Ambassadors for the sport of road racing

As well as their desire to be the best in everything that they do, the team has a very strong bond with every team member a part of the Topgun family. Hard work and hard play forge strong bonds that makes everyone work as a cohesive unit. The Topgun team wish to provide a platform to provide help and assistance to up and coming riders whether they are from military or civilain backgrounds.

Results

Competing for several years at the world's most demanding and punishing race is tough enough, and to finish any TT is a great achievement, but to finish on the podium as top privateer on homebuilt machine against a field of factory backed teams with such formidable riders as Micheal Dunlop and Connor Cummins is just unheard of!

Sponsorship

Topgun racing understands that there can be a better partnership between sponsors and competitors, providing sponsors with a professional platform to promote their organisations, and to gain better feedback through the web and social media to reinforce their brands to as wide an audience as possible.

Events

Topgun racing competes in the Isle of Man TT and Festival of Motorcycling, NW200, S100, UGP, Oliver’s Mount and the Macau GP
